also seems like a rather "unusual" gaming magazine - at least it's the only gaming mag I know which has links to soft porn on their main homepage

it looks as if they did the following:
- downloaded my installer and installed it
- removed the outdated scummvm version from it (which also included the GPL license file)
- removed the link to my homepage from it (which was a windows .url file)
- did not remove two of my launcher files: "Beneath a Steel Sky.exe" and "uninst.exe" - which are, as I state on my website, released under GPL
- repackaged that as a self-extracting zip archive

so I think technically they are violating the GPL on the two .exe files? (uninst.exe deletes the game directory, and the other one just exits with an error... but still)

they could have done it a lot cleaner by just using the BASS .zip file from scummvm.org...

(since the scummvm 0.9.1 release is distributed as the original release installer .exe that GPL is intact)

Yes. As the name denotes, it is clearly designed for the male pubertal FPS-player with much under-the-belt-humor and the like.
It would be better-fitting to PC Games or GameStar for that matter, or even PlayVanilla (first german gaming mag for females) for that matter, but that's just my opinion.
